New Wallpaper

We were playing Loaded Questions last night with two other couples. One of the questions was "Whose face would you like to have all over your wallpaper?"
The women immediately wrote down their answers (Donny Osmond, Orlando Bloom, and Donny Osmond). One woman whispered loudly to her husband "If you write Shania Twain you're sleeping on the couch." The men sat forever pondering their answers, and finally came up with "My spouse", "Shrek", and "Jesus".

Donny Osmond, huh?

It's true about the double standards we have. I try to remind myself not to do or say things that I wouldn't want my husband to do or say...but it just seems so much more harmless (less harmful?) when women talk about cute guys than when it's the other way around!

there very is. if i ever have a husband, i'll tell him to feel free to talk about jessica alba's bum as long as i can keep talking about justin morneau's. ;)

hmm, i think i'm gonna discourage my husband from talking about jessica alba's bum... i'm too insecure! ;)

there's a difference, though, because usually (not always) when a woman says "brad pitt is hot", she means 'brad pitt is hot', and that's the end of that story.
and often (not always) when a guy says "angelina jolie is hot", he's thinking a lot more than 'angelina jolie is hot'.

and i don't mean always and i don't mean everybody, but enrique agrees that that generalization is fairly accurate

but do guys know that we stop there? And can we really say that most girls do? I figure that if you can't take it, don't dish it out.

like i said, it's a generalization. and i agree that if you don't want your husband saying how beautiful halle berry is, you shouldn't go on about matthew mcconaughey.

Matthew McConaughey...so beautiful until he opens his mouth and you realize, yes, he probably is high on...something...right there on Oprah's couch.

ooh, but when he opens his mouth, he's speaking with a southern accent *swoon* ;)
